Undermassive Host Galaxies of Five z ∼ 6 Luminous Quasars Detected with JWST
We measure host galaxy stellar masses for a sample of five luminous quasars at z ∼ 5–7. Using JWST/NIRCam medium-band images of nearby point-spread function reference stars, we carefully subtract the contribution from the quasar light to place upper and lower limits on the flux of each host galaxy....
